Sorry if this upsets some folks.....but I have taken my name out of the running at NHS. I will be staying in Louisiana as of now. At one time the contract was agreed upon by both the NHS administration and my agent. Later after discusing the terms of my contract with the Norphlet School board the terms of the contract were changed and the guaranteed 5th year of the contract was removed, plus an added penalty clause that would have me paying a steep buyout if I chose to take another job before the 5th year of the contract was up have forced me to take my name out of the running. Sorry it couldn't work out..... I wish nothing but the best for the Norphlet fans and players.

England gives up points annually no matter who is there, and the 3-7 record from this last year was the school's best in 3 years. Please don't bash coaches on here. There is great positives in all coaches.

Norphlet has got a good young coach who will work hard.Positives: Barton 03-04 State Runner Up; Asst Maud,TX 07-08 State Semi-finalist; DC 07 Texarkana Gazette Coaching Staff of the year.

School itself won't last much longer. I bet the candidate pool was small for both positions at Norphlet. Most people in this area know about the problems they are having.

The HS squad will benefit from the rising 9th grade class, but they will still finish next-to-last in the 8-2A. They were dominated at the line of scrimmage most of last season...and that will continue to be the case. It doesn't matter how many "athletes" you got if you can't establish the LOS on both sides of the ball.

wow, poor coaches. i am sure these guys want to come in and do the best for this school and the players. yet you already have the school closing and basically running them out. i hope them the best and that things get turned around so that Norphlet continues to play football, and at a much higher level.
